Cluster service won't start on one node of cluster, error 1067

My apologies for re-posting something but nothing I've tried has helped so far.

I have 2, win 2k3 nodes in my cluster. The one that won't start has a bunch of 1000 and 7031 errors. when i try to start the service through the CLI or 'Services' I get the following message. "A system error has occurred" "the process terminated unexpectedly".

I get the same thing when adding the /fixquorum switch as suggested in this KB; http://support.microsoft.com/kb/923838. I also checked to make sure the driver was set to system and started per the KB.

To answer above questions:
1. can each node see and access the quorum disk with the other node shut down?
Even with the 2nd node shut down the problem node can't access either of the 2 disks. They are visible through the HP Array Config Utility but windows only sees drives with no information.

maybe it's less a cluster issue and more of a hardware issue. I'm more confused than before.

2. Does the cluster service have full control on the quorum and shared disks? the CSA is a member of domain admins but I can't access the storage to see.

1066, Cluster disk resource "Disk Q:" is corrupt. Run 'ChkDsk /F' to repair problems. The volume name for this resource is "\\?\Volume{7a15e43a-a19f-11df-b7e4-001438bde4f4}\".
If available, ChkDsk output will be in the file "C:\WINDOWS\Cluster\ChkDsk_Disk4_Sig8B2E1C25.log".
ChkDsk may write information to the Application Event Log with Event ID 26180.

I tried running chkdsk Q: /F but it fails with message "Can not open volume for direct access"

would I be better off getting rid of the cluster, getting it working on 1 node and then recreate the Q volume?
